  • A History of Juab County, Utah Centennial County History Series
    A HISTORY OF fjuab County Pearl D. Wilson with June McNulty and David Hampshire UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF JuaB County Pearl D. Wilson with June McNulty and David Hampshire luab County, one of Utah's earliest created counties, sits along the strategic north-south corridor of the state. Prehistoric and Native American Indian cultures roamed there, as did early Spanish priests and explorers, who left an important record of the area. Trappers and traders wandered the mountains and deserts that create stark contrasts in this geo­ graphically diverse county. Mark Twain, an early traveler through parts of luab, penned interesting insights of the county, which contained portions of the Pony Express and Overland Stage routes. Mormon pioneers arrived to establish farms and ranches. This was followed by the build­ ing of railroads and mineral exploration. Rail traffic for a vast region centered in Nephi, labeled "Little Chicago." To the west, the Tintic Mining District rose as one of Utah's richest gold and silver mining areas, attract­ ing a more ethnically diverse population. From majestic Mount Nebo to streams and lakes and the vast sand dunes of west Juab, the county contains many recreational possibili­ ties. Juab County is rich in history, geogra­ phy, and tradition; this book tells its story. ISBN: 0-913738-20-4 A HISTORY OF Juab County A HISTORY OF ffuaB County Pearl D.

  • A History of Duchesne County, Utah Centennial County History Series
    A HISTORY OF 'Duchesne County r>* '••'""•"•• l'j •:%*'•:•• John D. Barton UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF (Duchesne County John D. Barton Duchesne County, in the Uinta Basin of northeastern Utah, was opened for home- steading in 1905, the last region in the state settled by Euro-Americans, and among the last settled areas in the continental United States. Its history is a microcosm of that of the West, featuring various groups of Native Americans, Spanish explorers, fur trappers, outlaws, cowboys, miners, and freighters. It was made part of the Uintah Ute Indian Reservation in 1861. Later, it was opened to homesteading, resulting in a land rush. County residents lived a pioneering lifestyle well into the twentieth century as they home- steaded the land and built communities. In more recent times, the county has faced booms and busts based on extractive economies, large government water projects, environ­ mental problems, and conflict between tradi­ tional and contemporary ideas about land use. In recent years, the Ute Tribe has claimed jurisdiction over the land, resulting in legal battles all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Located on the south slope of the Uinta Mountains, Duchesne County contains many spectacular natural resources, including the highest point in the state—Kings Peak—and is loved by thousands of outdoor enthusiasts and county residents.

Wimmer All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Walker War Reconsidered Ryan E. Wimmer Department of History Master of Arts In July of 1853, Chief Wakara’s band of Utes clashed in a series of violent confrontations with the Mormon settlers. This conflict is known as the Walker War. Many complex factors contributed to this war. After some earlier violence between Mormons and different bands of Utes between 1847 and 1851, the Mormons continued their quick expansion settling on Ute lands. From 1851 to 1853 Mormon and Ute relations continued to decline as Mormons expanded their settlements occupying Ute hunting grounds. In addition to these land encroachments, new laws were enacted regulating trade between the Spanish and Utes by Brigham Young.

  • HISTORY of Summit County
    A HISTORY OF Summit County David Hampshire Martha Sonntag Bradley Allen Roberts UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF = Summit A HISTORY OF Summit County David Hampshire Martha Sonntag Bradley Allen Roberts Summit County's 25,000 residents consti­ tute scarcely more than one percent of Utah's inhabitants; yet, the county's influence al­ ways has been out of proportion to its popu­ lation. For the first Mormon pioneers, the route to their Zion passed through the area that became Summit County. The county continues to serve as a major transportation corridor, carrying transcontinental freeways and railroads. From its mountains spring four major rivers, providing water that sus­ tains much of northern Utah. Its mines have produced silver, gold, lead, and zinc worth hundreds of millions of dollars, money that helped build the state and the Intermountain West. By 1997 its petroleum deposits had yielded almost 170 million barrels of oil. Its three large ski resorts have helped define Utah as a major international destination for skiers and the county as a popular recre­ ational area for Utahns, especially those liv­ ing along the Wasatch Front. These themes—as well as many others— are woven here into a colorful tapestry that is the history of Summit County.
